Time for resolutions? I think not.
I thought this was worth a giggle or two. If I had any 2025 thoughts, they might be to cook less and quilt more. Hire someone to clean. Eat more avocadoes. Get rid of more “stuff”. Buy pretty clothes.
We are home, as of Sunday night. Banjo Man is ever so slowly recovering from the “coughing crud” he had for most of our time in Texas. The day before we left I was hit by one of the ever-present and infamous Texas allergies that tortures its residents year round.
The flights home were plagued with severe ear pain and tears. Yes, I cried. A lot. Like one of those poor infants who scream during takeoff and landing. Daughter Nancy picked us up at the airport and drove her weary parents home. I suspect we were pathetic. And maybe a little…elderly.
I went to bed Sunday night and didn’t get up again until this morning. I feel sooooo much better, though Banjo Man does not. He explained he is suffering from plugged “airplane ears” and is going to try all the remedies he just read on Google.
I hope one of them works so he will smile again.
I want to wish you a very happy, peaceful and healthy New Year. May we all find joy in every day.
is there any more pie? 
Oh =+*shoot!! So sorry.
ken is just getting over the weeks of coughing crud. Finally a shot of antibiotic and a prescription.
Too late now, but I keep Claritin in my purse for airplane ears. It has worked for me for years. Sometimes it helped to hold my nose tightly shut and blow it hard. Yes that is what I said. I don’t have a suggestion for the allergy. 🤔😏❤️
We had a glorious Christmas. I’m taking my time recovering. Made lots of memories.

I’m so glad your Christmas was so wonderful! We cherish these times together, as we should. I will try to get your brother to see a doctor if he’s not feeling better tomorrow. Wish me luck.
This is funny. 😄 Sent from my iPad
Happy New Year to you two! Sounds like you had kind of a tough plane ride!

If it’s any consolation… we almost always get “coughing crud” from our holiday travels, now soldiering onward and slowly getting past it after trips to Phoenix and Seattle. Just in time to get out the snowblower for winter driveway enjoyment after our first measurable snowfall of the season 🙂 Best of 2025 to you, Banjo Man, and yours.
